Near fine book in near fine jacket (glued down as issued) - one bump to leading board edges, else fine condition. A promotional book printed in very small quantities specifically for New Line Cinema. Quite scarce, especially in this condition. About 12 1/2 x 9 1/4 inches, and about 1/2 inch thick, with 96 pages of more than 100 incredible full-color photos, including film stills, printed on high-quality glossy paper. This book is a pictorial overview of the complete cinematic version of the Tolkien epic. It’s also loaded with quotes from almost everyone involved in the production--from the director Peter Jackson; the actors including Ian McKellen, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin, Elijah Wood, Cate Blanchett, Orlando Bloom, Liv Tyler, Miranda Otto, Dominic Monaghan, Billy Boyd, John Rhys-Davies, and Andy Serkis; and creative personnel such as the director of photography, the art director, and Richard Taylor of Weta Workshop--that give you an insider’s view on what it was like to be on the set, what it was like to work on the movie, and how the actors felt about their characters.
